Her once hazel eyes
Are now tinted with red
And her cheeks are flushed
With mother nature's own blush
Her lip trembles
As a raindrop slides down
The canvas that is her face
And although she weeps
It's more like a painting
Than a scene from a movie

The exhaustion feels worse
Than stones tied across my back
It feels like eyes permanently shut
And days spent staring at a screen
Just to give your mind a place to go
It feels like life has become a carousel
And you are just there for the ride
Going but not living
When I am tired
It hurts

She was pretty
But not beautiful
Talented
But not exceptional
Smart
But not brilliant
And quite frankly she wasn't a lot of things
But whatever she was-
Was ****** amazing

In the shadow of the night
The moon casts a beam of light
Into a room with fading wallpaper
And soda cans amongst other items
Strung across the floor
But on a bed that has lost its comfort
A young couple sleeps together
Intertwined like two souls melded together
They share the same breath
As they sleep

I write words with a blueprint in my mind
But somehow
Common sense always gets left behind

Like a parent trying to tame a child
I reign in the words
With an iron-grip bridle

But the words will do what they do
Because words my dear
Could never be controlled by you

She only asked for a single star
But he gave her his whole universe

In the darkening light
As the sun makes its descent
You can see two lovers
Setting with the sun
And rising with the moon
Where their love shines brightest
Because while their love
May have been a fiery
And bright passion like the sun
The moonlight captures the royalty
Of their moon-touched love
With all the stars around to bow
